Has anyone installed this SC kit on their car? Apparently, they make them for a lot of Lexus models so perhaps I'll have to post this in the general forum but for now I'm more interested in my particular year/model which is 2017 AWD GS350.
Last time I put a blower on a vehicle it was my 1998 Maxima and that thing could fly. Had no problems with the engine or anything so I'm wondering what the possible damage might be with a Toyota which are notorious for hard to flash chips.
TIA

Do a few searches for supercharger - there's a few threads with a ton of details.

If you want the summary of those threads: not worth it.

 

Just buy a GSF, not worth it.

 

That's funny, you mentioned GSF, I got a tingle, then I just passed a blue one at a storage facility.

 

Most guys would caution against major performance mods on the GS but we also like to celebrate in one's success.
I say go for it and keep us posted about the build.

Good luck

 

Thank you. I did search but I didn't find much. Go figure. Can't understand why it wouldn't be worth it, I've been modding cars for years and if done properly they're usually fine. Especially Japanese cars which are like tuner heaven.

 

How so? GSF is nothing special. Maybe if you'd said LC...

 

Has anyone on this forum successfully supercharged their GS?

 

It would be a nice Performance Mod. Just more interested in Suspension Mods & Drop's here on the GS forum. lol!

There is a GS350 on You Tube that has a SC GS350. I'm not sure if they are on here or now, but you can find it ion You Tube, Was just a drive video though. Like someone else said, I say go for it and let us know.

 

I recall two members have done it:
Member PilotX: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/gs-...ged-gs350.html
Member AC3GS: https://www.clublexus.com/forums/bui...rwd-build.html

 

I think the reason why people say it's not worth it is because you will put a lot of money into the car for small to mild gains in HP. I think I read one where they put over $10K for the SC and tuning and ended up with around the same power as the GS-F for around the same price but much less reliable.

 

lol. I know right. Just some sways, links, and braces should handle the roll and power transfer without sacrificing the ride. If done with exhaust and tune gains should be pretty significant.

I'm going to call RR Racing and talk to them. I'll report back.

 

Interesting. Thanks.

 

Thank you.

 

and Pilotx was selling his GS.
